The United Nations Against Israel!

Spread the love

     In January of 1919, while Europe was re-organizing itself to rebuild over the ashes of the Great War (1914-1918), The United-States, France, Great Britain and Italy gathered in Paris to discuss the aftermath and the fate of the defeated nations. This historic event is remembered as the “Paris Peace Conference” and came just before the “Treaty of Versailles” (June 1919). As a result of the Paris Peace Conference, La Société des Nations or “League of Nations”was born. The Great War of 1914-1918 was also nicknamed the “War to end all wars” and the League of Nations (LON) had diplomatic and peace-keeping aspirations. These somewhat Utopian dreams were quickly thwarted by the LON’s inability to enforce sanctions, having no armed forces of their own. When Hitler decided to pull Germany out of the league after coming to power in 1933, it became painfully obvious that the hopeful conglomerate of 58 countries was pretty much powerless in directing and policing world affairs. While originally but partially successful in some areas, the LON was incapable of preventing World War II and on April 20th 1946, it was officially dissolved.
     Around the same time that the LON ceased to exist, another world body was born to replace it, pick-up where they left off and establish a more permanent and peaceful global community. It was in London, in January 1946 that the first meeting of that new body took place when the General Assembly of the United Nations convened. They started with 51 nations in 1946 and are now including 193 nations in 2013.
     Of the six main agencies falling under the United Nations (UN) umbrella, the Security Council (UNSC) is the one that deals with resolutions and possible sanctions regarding international security and/or peace. An unbiased approach to world conflicts and political issues is expected from such an agency. According to the UN Security Council’s Charter, it has four purposes:

  • to maintain international peace and security;
  • to develop friendly relations among nations;
  • to cooperate in solving international problems and in promoting respect for human rights;
  • and to be a centre for harmonizing the actions of nations.
     Allow me to draw your attention towards the full text of the UNSC charter’s first item on their list of purposes:

  1. To maintain international peace and security, and to that end: to take effective collective measures for the prevention and removal of threats to the peace, and for the suppression of acts of aggression or other breaches of the peace, and to bring about by peaceful means, and in conformity with the principles of justice and international law, adjustment or settlement of international disputes or situations which might lead to a breach of the peace;
     This statement of purpose sounds honorable and just on paper but when it comes to the Arab/Israeli conflict, I am afraid that the United Nation Security Council, and the United Nations for that matter are using a whole different set of standards. When they talk about the “suppression of acts of aggression or other breaches of the peace”, they rarely if ever are mentioning Hamas (Palestinian Authority) or Hezbollah (Lebanon) constant hammering of Israel with missiles and terrorist attacks. It seems much of the efforts of the UN focus on accusing Israel of the very crimes her enemies are guilty of, and all this while most of the world watches in apathy or even worse; satisfying their antisemitic urge to vilify the Jewish state.
     While Syria is crumbling under Assad’s iron fisted regime and chemical weapons and while Christians amongst others are being persecuted and killed in Egypt at an alarming rate, the UN is still concerned about the establishing of a settlement in the “disputed territories” Seriously? 
     The UN seems to be operating on the premise of resolution 3379 (passed in 1975) stating that “Zionism was equal to Racism”. Even though the resolution was repealed in 1991 (it only took the UN 16 years to repeal it!), it appears that the spirit of that resolution is still the driving force behind the UN’s dealings with the Israel. The following brief video by Anne Bayefsky of the Touro Institute for Human Rights and the Holocaust  clearly helps us understand the bias.
     It really doesn’t matter which part of the UN agency we are dealing with, the entire organization is corrupt and driven by the agenda of the enemies of Israel.
     There should be no doubt in our mind that the United Nations have come a long way since their voting for the establishment of Modern Israel. Even Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon’s statement of UN Bias against Israel was short lived when he recently declared before a body of Israeli students that: “Unfortunately because of the conflict, Israel has been weighed down by criticism and suffered from bias – sometimes even discrimination” at the U.N.
      I must admit that such an honest statement from the Secretary General surprised me. I wasn’t surprised though when only days later he contradicted that very statement by saying:
“I don’t think there is discrimination against Israel at the United Nations. The Israeli government maybe raised this issue that there’s some bias against Israel, but Israel is one of the 193 member states. Thus, Israel should have equal rights and opportunities without having any bias, any discrimination. That’s a fundamental principle of the United Nations charter. And thus, Israel should be fully given such rights.”
     It is very clear to me and I hope to my readers that the United Nations are indeed united but not against global injustice, violence and hatred. THEY SEEM TO HAVE BECOME THE UNITED NATIONS AGAINST ISRAEL, and based on God’s Word in Zechariah 12:1-9, the enemies of the Jewish people are approaching their day of reckoning:

The burden of the word of the Lord concerning Israel. Thus declares the Lord who stretches out the heavens, lays the foundation of the earth, and forms the spirit of man within him, “Behold, I am going to make Jerusalem a cup that causes reeling to all the peoples around; and when the siege is against Jerusalem, it will also be against Judah. It will come about in that day that I will make Jerusalem a heavy stone for all the peoples; all who lift it will be severely injured. And all the nations of the earth will be gathered against it. In that day,” declares the Lord, “I will strike every horse with bewilderment and his rider with madness. But I will watch over the house of Judah, while I strike every horse of the peoples with blindness. Then the clans of Judah will say in their hearts, ‘A strong support for us are the inhabitants of Jerusalem through the Lord of hosts, their God.’“In that day I will make the clans of Judah like a fire pot among pieces of wood and a flaming torch among sheaves, so they will consume on the right hand and on the left all the surrounding peoples, while the inhabitants of Jerusalem again dwell on their own sites in Jerusalem. The Lord also will save the tents of Judah first, so that the glory of the house of David and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem will not be magnified above Judah. In that day the Lord will defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and the one who is feeble among them in that day will be like David, and the house of David will be like God, like the angel of the Lord before them. And in that day I will set about to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.
     While God is always called the God of Israel in the Bible and never the God of Palestine, we must always remember that He is the God of all mankind. If Palestinians and other Arab countries have been misled into a now viral hatred of Israel, they are nonetheless human beings that are as lost without Yeshua the Messiah as anybody else might be be.
     For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God (Romans 3:23)

    Excellent history of the U.N. and it’s progressive, tragic descent into becoming a tool of propaganda and hate against Israel by her enemies. The original U.N. founders would deplore the metamorphosis of their once honorable organization into a mechanism for furthering antisemitism. How doubly insulting that their headquarters are on U.S. soil and are supported with millions of U.S. taxpayer dollars.

    I heartily concur with the above and have long wished the USA would withdraw from the UN (United Nothing as a favorite teacher has dubbed her) and get the building used by someone else! When will we raise our voices against this?!

    If theres something truly evil on this planet, it has to be brainwashed jews who think god justifies their heinous crimes and that anyone who condemns those crimes is antisemitic. Your religion is evil and your militarism and nationalism are evil.

    What a BS article! With all the illegal acts Israel does and along with the US being in their pocket, all the US has to do is veto UN resolutions recognizing Israel’s crimes and boom there gone,,, this is what the world sees and this is why Israel is hated so much and not forget all the warmongering coming from Israel wanting to take out Syria, Iran.. forget about Libya and Iraq, the US has left those places in shambles in doing what Israel wanted.. Zionism is evil and the world is waking up to this fact!

    it is too bad that people use Israel to spew such hatred. Israel left alone would live in peace. We need truly to stop critizing and start loving and that should be all of us for each other. No man is an Island and where would we be if we went back to early civilization without all the fabulous technology we have today a lot of which came from Israel and their scholars. let us each live in peace within ourselves and not display venom in our hearts for others of mankind. One thing for sure Israel is NO warmonger unless provoked or threaten. I suggest Avram Cohen you open your mind up to reality and truth. AND love.
